This strategy has been successfully employed on numerous occasions....I was shocked to hear of a hiker that was able to fend off a grizzly attack with only a .380 semi-automatic handgun. Apparently a single round in his girl friend's leg was sufficient. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nstoolman1 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 This is a story of self control and marksmanship. A woman survived a grizzly bear attack on her with one well placed shot from her itsy bitsy .25 caliber Beretta Jetfire.These are her own words.:While out hiking in Alberta Canada with my boyfriend, we were surprised when a huge grizzly bear came charging at us out of nowhere. She must have been protecting her cubs because she was extremely aggressive.If I had not had my little Beretta Jetfire I would not be here today! I yanked it out of my purse and fired one shot. It hit my boyfriend in his kneecap and the bear caught him easily. While the grizzly mauled the poor cripple, I was able to escape by just walking away at a brisk pace. I love that pistol. I'll find other boyfriends. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moose 57 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I watched a Black Bear stalk and kill a deer in a field once. Would not want to be on the receiving end of that! When they come out of hibernation there is not much forage for them and they pretty much have to eat... Didn't realize how fast a Bear can run till i saw that 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
